Jackdaw

I love these birds - they are so shy, but very big. This one has been collecting worms for its young. Earlier it was hanging off the bottom of one of our seed feeders, trying to bend enough to get its beak into the feeder.

Quite nice in large,

2 firsts for me today:

1: I heard my first cuckoo of the year
2: The swifts have arrived - they came screaming around this morning.
